The assembled papers are an important complement to Professor Lang's pathbreaking study of Herodotean narrative. Together with introductory essays by the volume's editors, these papers will enable students of historiography in general to obtain a better understanding of how Thucydides engaged his audience. Although they were written over many years, the papers share a consistency of insight that makes them continually relevant to all who endeavor to understand the literary art of Thucydides. \u003cb\u003eReviews for this volume: \u003c\/b\u003e \"[T]his collection of Lang's writings should complement any bookshelf devoted to Thucydides or to narratological approaches to ancient literature.\" - Bryn Mawr Classical Review \"Very engaging and thought-provoking...\" - The Classical Outlook\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mabel Lang\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0979971349\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780979971341\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Michigan Classical Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/31\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 219\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.20d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2011 pg. 27","brand":"Mabel Lang","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":49096800436479,"sku":"9780979971341","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/thucydidean-narrative-and-discourse-mabel-lang-9780979971341","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
